#PAGE SHUFFLE INDESIGN HOW TO#

Keith yes, unfortunately you'd have to do the bleeds by hand. As it looks now the art stops right at the trim on that side by the gutter. Would I have to go in and unlock all of the art, page by page in order to get that to bleed off into the center of the book area? For my 500 page book, that may be time consuming, so I thought it was a good question. What if the printer needs to have art bleed off into the gutter area? I have border art on the master pages that bleeds off of the page behind the text on every page. This tip was great, but I have a quick question. Super! thank you thank you thank you!!! I now have more time to spend with my kids :0) Thanks for your tip! it saved my life today :) Keith I don't know of any way to automatically apply a master to all even or all odd pages of a long document. Or I can word the question differntly, Is there anyway to apply a master page to all odd or even pages in a document?

So, now the question is how to do this to a 250 page dcument? Do I have to go in and pull off a page from each spread. If you are doing a layout that has different masters for left and right pages, the method I outlined is the only way to preserve this.īrilliant tip thanks so much! This has saved me tuckloads of time fiddling with master pages on a large document for print. Shawn, your method works, BUT the difference is that with your method all the pages are converted to using the right-hand page of the master spread. This automatically separates all of the pages into singles, without having to drag each page individually out of the flow. DON'T uncheck 'Allow Document Pages to Shuffle.' Go to Document Setup and uncheck Facing Pages. Thanks a lot for this awesome tip! I had no idea this was possible until coming across your blog.Īdding one more bow for this great tip. I've passed on your blog address to all my coworkers. This tip just saved me a TON of time and frustration.on the evening the project had to be sent out. Now if only there were a script to save a multi-page document as single, *.indd pages in Windows. The pages you selected should now be a different size to the others.Great trick, thanks. Select the name of the custom page size you just made - and we're done. Now select the pages you want to change in the Pages Palette (using the Command or Control key to select multiple pages). Click 'Add' to add the new size to the list. Give the custom size a name and adjust the measurements appropriately. Give some InDesign pages different sizesĬlick the 'Edit Page Size' button at the bottom of the Pages Palette. You can now drag the pages into a four page spread in the Page Palette. In the pages palette submenu, make sure that 'Allow Document Pages to Shuffle' is deselected. Choose your paper size and choose 8 pages (assuming that you want to create an 8 page gate fold document): However, if Facing Pages is turned on you're less likely to have gaps appear between the pages (which is what happened when I first tried this) - so it's probably best to leave Facing Pages checked. You can do this either with Facing Pages selected or deselected. Create a spread with multiple pages in InDesignĬreate a new document. This ensures that when the document is folded shut the outer pages fit nicely when folded within. In addition, because this is a gate-fold, it’s best to make sure that the outer pages are about 1mm narrower than the inner pages. I wanted InDesign to give me two four-page spreads to work on instead. I recently had to create an 8 page gate-fold brochure with multiple pages in InDesign instead of creating two super-wide pages.
